No 1/4 is larger. Think of 1/4 as it as a piece of a pie with less slices.

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = 2 7/ 10 miles per hour

From the chart attached :

Distance between historic village and science center : (-4 1/2, 5 1/4) to (-4 1/2, -1 3/4)

Taking the sum of the absolute value of the y coordinate :

|5 1/4| + |-1 3/4| = 5 + 1 + 1/4 + 3/4 = 7

From science center to museum :

(-4 1/2, - 1 3/4) to (2, - 1 3/4)

Taking the sum of the absolute value of the x coordinate :

|4 1/2| + |2| = 4 + 2 + 1/2 = 6 1/2

Total distance traveled = 7 + 61/2 = 13 1/2 miles

Time taken = Distance / speed

Time taken = 13 1/2 ÷ 2 7/10

Time taken = 27/2 * 10/27

Time taken = 10/2

Time taken = 5 hours

What is the equation of a line passing through (-3,7) and having a slip of -1/5

MrRa [10]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{D.\ y=-\dfrac{1}{5}x+\dfrac{32}{5}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the slope m = -1/5. Substitute:

$y=-\dfrac{1}{5}x+b$

Put the coordinates of the given point (-3, 7) to the equation:

$7=-\dfrac{1}{5}(-3)+b$

$7=\dfrac{3}{5}+b$ subtract 3/5 from both sides

$6\dfrac{2}{5}=b\to b=\dfrac{6\cdot5+2}{5}=\dfrac{32}{5}$

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

To spend at most $93, they need to rent the room less than or equal 13 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

To rent a certain meeting room, a college charges a reservation fee of $15 and an additional fee of $6 per hour. The chemistry club wants to spend at most $93 on renting a room. What are the possible numbers of hours the chemistry club could rent the meeting room? Use t for the number of hours. Write your answer as an inequality solved for t,

Let

t ----> the number of hours

we know that

I this problem the word "at most" means "less than or equal to"

The number of hours rented multiplied by the cost per hour, plus the reservation fee, must be less than or equal to $93

The inequality that represent this situation is

$6t+15\leq 93$
